1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

SRp20 is a member of the highly conserved SR family of splicing regulators. Using a variety of reporter gene constructs, we show that SRp20 regulates alternative splicing of its own mRNA. Overexpression of SRp20 results in a reduction in the level of exon 4-skipped SRp20 transcripts and activates the production of transcripts containing exon 4. These exon 4-included transcripts encode a truncated protein lacking the C-terminal RS domain. We provide evidence that SRp20 probably enhances the recognition of the otherwise unused, weak splice acceptor of exon 4. The recognition of exons with weak splice acceptor sites may be a general activity of SRp20. Unexpectedly, ASF/SF2, another member of the SR family, antagonizes the effect of SRp20 on SRp20 pre-mRNA splicing and suppresses the production of the exon 4-included form. Our results indicate that ASF/SF2 suppresses the use of the alternative exon 4, most likely by inhibiting the recognition of the splice donor of exon 4. These results demonstrate, for the first time, an auto-regulatory activity of an SR protein which is antagonized by a second SR protein.
